Inca One Hires Plant Metallurgist at Chala One Plant

VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - December 09, 2014) - Inca One Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE: IO) ("Inca One" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has hired Carlos Santana as Chief Metallurgist for the Chala One gold milling plant (the "Chala Plant") in Peru. The Chala Plant has recently resumed test milling on its original processing circuit, and is in the final stages of expansion to 100 tonnes per day ("TPD") capacity.

Mr. Santana will report to the newly-hired Mill Superintendent, Emilio Ortiz (see press release of November 25, 2014), and brings a wealth of metallurgical operating experience in gold processing plants similar to the Chala Plant. Previous positions include over 7 years as Chief of Plant Operations at the Chaparra Mill of Minera Colibri, where he was instrumental in the basic engineering and development for the expansion of plant capacity from 75 to 150 tonnes per day ("TPD"), as well as process optimization of operations following that expansion. He also served for over 4 years as the Chief Shift Supervisor of Metallurgical Operations at the Chumpe Concentrator of Centromin Peru. Mr. Santana has a degree in Chemical Metallurgy from the National University of Engineering of Peru, along with considerable additional related training in technical, environmental and security issues during his career. 

"We are very pleased to add Carlos Santana to our excellent technical and operating team," said Edward Kelly, Inca One's President and CEO. "He brings additional metallurgical experience to compliment the extensive background of Emilio Ortiz and Jaime Polar, our two operating managers with extensive previous experience at Barrick Gold Corp." 

Mr. Santana's addition to the Inca One management at the Chala Plant completes the high-level team of experienced and competent professionals of solid reputation in the industry. All of the Company's operating management team members are from the top echelon among the Peruvian mining industry and, in addition to being of Peruvian nationality, have been educated and trained in Peru.
